Pakistan Invites Taliban, China to Discuss Afghanistan Peace
|
[Bloomberg] Pakistan has invited Taliban and Chinese leaders for talks in Islamabad to smooth the way for intra-Afghan negotiations aimed at bringing an end the 19-year war that's ravaged Afghanistan.
Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood "Wormtongue" Qureshi said talks with a delegation of Taliban leaders would be held on Tuesday, to be followed by a visit by Chinese special envoy for Afghanistan, Liu Jian, to ensure a "coordinated and considered approach" toward peace. The dates for Liu's visit have yet to be announced.
"We can't impose our decisions," Qureshi told a news conference in Islamabad on Monday. "We acknowledge and respect Afghanistan's sovereignty and we are trying to make progress in these engagements." Qureshi didn't give further details of the Taliban's stay in Pakistan.

Other members of the delegation are Khairullah Khairkhwah, Mohammad Nabi Omari, Shahabuddin Delawar, Abdul Latif Mansour and Qari din Mohammad.
Pak Foreign Minister Shah Mahmoud Qureshi said the Taliban was invited by Islamabad for consultations on the grinding of the peace processor in Afghanistan.
"You remember that last time ahead of the Doha agreement, the Taliban came to our Foreign Ministry and we held a long and constructive meeting. You saw that after that, the Taliban came to the negotiations table," Qureshi told news hounds on Monday. "It was not an easy task."
Qureshi said the next step after the agreement should be the start of the intra-Afghan negotiations if the goal is to reach stability and reconciliation.
Taliban front man Shaheen said the grinding of the peace processor and the Afghan refugees’ issues in Pakistain, as well as creating facilities for trade relations between the two countries will be the topics of the delegation’s meeting with Pak officials.
The News Agency that Dare Not be Named reported on Monday that the Taliban chief has finalized a negotiating team that is to have decision-making powers in upcoming intra-Afghan negotiations, a top Taliban negotiator told The News Agency that Dare Not be Named.
